As promised back to it. My knee was especially sore this morning after all the twisting and poking yesterday but it didn't get worse during the run. I ran out and back to the waterfall near my house with Kaitlyn. She could tell the reduced pace from the time off and kept saying faster daddy faster... Overall not bad but there is room for improvement. We'll see how I feel later today and tomorrow. In work now for a couple hours then to errands and a local Halloween party.

That's great Adam you have no noticeable tear, and getting to run a few miles is better than none. I hope they can still find exactly what's going on.

Once you do get back to running your body is going to be fresh.
